Chris Hobe

Artist's Bio

My art is utilizes the cycles of History to create art that makes people think a little deeper than just a piece of art. I use historical imagery to create the historical representation with a contemporary street art touch. All work is composed of Acrylic/Latex/Mixed Media on handcrafted framed wood panel. My art is intended to make people think outside the box and not just go with the mainstream; to inspire people to be pioneers like the people before us and not just be content or complacent.SHORT BIO:Orange County, CA born fine artist, and self confessed street "artist" CHRIS HOBE', also known by the underground pseudonym HOBE', creates a box for the world to think outside of.
